Endorsements: East Ramapo School Board Elections Tues May 16

We enthusiastically endorse Alexandra Manigo, Chevon DosReis and Eric Goodwin, three passionate parents of current East Ramapo students running for the three open seats this year.The three candidates hope to build a school board that upholds high expectations for all students (including dramatically increasing the proficiency, graduation and college-going rates in the district), demonstrates transparency and community outreach (including responsive decision-making),ensures a proper learning environment for every child (including overseeing the $58 million bond and addressing overcrowding), and increases student and family programs and services (including teaching assistants, advisors, and peer mentoring).
